Toronto. Smartphone cameras keep improving. Florida photographer Brian Matiash writes a blog newly christened, “Lightroom Everywhere“. In his very first article, “Smartphone Photography Apologetics“, he confesses that he has used his iPhone camera as his ‘mobile’ camera since 2008.
I must agree with Brian. I too use my little iPod Touch camera routinely as it is always with me. The tiny camera gives un-cropped images equivalent to a 35mm lens on a 35mm film camera. The modest 8 megapixel images are very good IF attention is paid to framing and lighting. Modest post adjustment sharpens an image and reduces noise. As brian points out you can make modest corrections to lighting by post adjustments but not to subject/framing.
Have a read and see how photographers in the future might view cameras and technology. Remember current items may become historical items in 50 years or more … The equipment changes but the fundamentals do not.
